Reducing Supply Chain Risk in Battery Manufacturing: From Raw Materials to Shipped Cells

Mar 19, 2026
8:00 AM PT | 5:00 PM CET

 

R Systems Thought Leadership Webinar Series

The global battery industry is scaling rapidly, increasing operational complexity across manufacturing environments. As raw materials move through mixing, coating, assembly, formation, testing, and shipment, the margin for error narrows. Quality, compliance, and traceability are no longer optional; they are foundational to sustainable production.

 

For battery manufacturing organizations, maintaining end-to-end visibility across incoming materials, in-process controls, and outbound quality are fundamental metrics of success. A manufacturing system that integrates with your supply chain system reduces uncertainty, strengthens recall readiness, and protects performance where precision and accountability matter most.

 

This webinar explores how battery manufacturers can strengthen incoming material control, achieve automatic end-to-end traceability, and apply risk mitigation strategies without adding unnecessary system complexity using integrated MES capabilities.

Why Attend?

 

Battery manufacturers face escalating operational and business challenges:

  • Financial Risks: Product recalls and yield loss can result in significant cost exposure
  • Regulatory Compliance: Meeting EU Battery Passport, IRA, and NDAA requirements
  • Contractual Commitments: Delivering consistent quality to OEM and Tier-1 customers
  • Safety Assurance: Preventing defects from progressing beyond the factory floor

Learn how to address these issues head-on with strategic insights and practical solutions.

 

The Four Pillars of Risk Mitigation

Our expert will delve into four critical practices:

  • Incoming Material Control: Validate certifications and material quality before production begins
  • In-Process Traceability: Enable unit-level tracking and detailed process histories to isolate issues quickly
  • Outbound Quality Assurance: Apply multi-stage quality gates to ensure only compliant cells are shipped
  • Closed-Loop Returns: Use RMA and defect data to prevent recurrence and improve upstream controls

Why This Topic Matters Today

Battery supply chains are complex by design. The teams that design, build, store, and manage these systems make decisions every day that affect product quality, regulatory alignment, and customer confidence. Traceability provides clarity. It helps organizations understand not just where materials are at a given moment, but how they arrived there and what that journey means for performance and risk.

This webinar will help you view traceability as a strategic capability. It will highlight the decisions that matter most and the approaches that deliver results in real operational environments.
